RAYONIER INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(Dollar amounts in thousands unless otherwise stated)
1.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Rayonier Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Rayonier” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the opinion of management, these financial statements and notes reflect all adjustments (all of which are normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented. These statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and supplementary data included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2015
, as filed with the SEC (the “2015 Form 10-K”).
Reclassifications
Certain 2015 amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation, including changes in balance sheet presentation. During the first quarter of 2016, the Company reclassified capitalized debt costs related to non-revolving debt from Other Assets to Long Term Debt as a result of the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03,
Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-50) - Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs,
which is required to be applied on a retrospective basis. This reclassification is reflected in the June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 Consolidated Balance Sheets. A corresponding change has also been made to the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for both periods presented.
New Accounting Standards
In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-09,
Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting
. This update simplifies the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. ASU No. 2016-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Rayonier intends to adopt ASU No. 2016-09 in the Company’s first quarter 2017 Form 10-Q. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this new guidance on the consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-05,
Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Effect of Derivative Contract Novations on Existing Hedge Accounting Relationships
, which clarifies that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as the hedging instrument under Topic 815 does not, in and of itself, require de-designation of that hedging relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. ASU No. 2016-05 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. Rayonier intends to adopt ASU No. 2016-05 in the Company’s first quarter 2017 Form 10-Q and does not expect it will have an impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02,
Leases (Topic 842)
, which requires lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets related to the rights and obligations created by those leases. ASU No. 2016-02 also requires additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures related to the nature, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period. ASU No. 2016-02 is required to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented beginning in the period of adoption. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this new guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB and International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) jointly issued ASU No. 2014-09,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
, a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that will supersede current revenue recognition guidance. The guidance provides a unified model to determine when and how revenue is recognized and will require enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Deferral of the Effective Date
. ASU No. 2015-14 provides a one-year deferral of the effective date of the new standard, with an option for organizations to adopt early based on the original effective date. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers—Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing
. The update clarifies the guidance for identifying performance obligations. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU. No. 2016-12,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 660): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients
. The update clarifies the guidance for assessing collectibility, presenting sales taxes and other similar taxes collected from customers, noncash consideration, contract modifications at transition, completed contracts at transition and disclosing the accounting change in the period of adoption. This standard will be effective for Rayonier beginning January 1, 2018 and can be applied either retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this new guidance on the consolidated financial statements and has completed a preliminary analysis of the specific impacts to our New Zealand Timber and Real Estate segments.
Subsequent Events
On July 7, 2016, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement for a notional amount of
$100 million
through May 2026. This swap agreement fixes the variable portion of the interest rate on the Incremental Term Loan borrowings due 2026 from LIBOR to an average rate of
1.26%
. Together with the bank margin of
1.90%
, this results in a rate of
3.16%
before estimated patronage payments. This derivative instrument has been designated as an interest rate cash flow hedge and qualifies for hedge accounting.

TIMBERLAND ACQUISITION
Menasha Acquisition
The Company and Forest Investment Associates (“FIA”) formed Olympus Acquisition Company (“Olympus”) to acquire all the outstanding common stock of Menasha Forest Products Corporation (“Menasha”), a privately held company with approximately
132,000
acres of timberland located in Oregon and Washington (the “Menasha Acquisition”).
On May 10, 2016 (the “acquisition date”), essentially all of the net assets of Olympus were distributed to the Company and FIA, resulting in the Company owning an identified portfolio of
61,000
acres of the former Menasha timberland for a final purchase price of approximately
$263 million
.
Business Combination Accounting
The distribution of net assets from Olympus to Rayonier has been accounted for as a business combination. Accordingly, the consideration paid by the Company has been recorded to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. In determining the fair value of the timberlands, the Company utilized valuation methodologies including a discounted cash flow analysis. A sales comparison approach was utilized to determine the fair market value of property, plant and equipment. The carrying values for current assets and liabilities were deemed to approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. Rayonier’s share of acquisition costs of
$1.2 million
is included in “Other operating income, net.”
As of the filing date of this report, the Company has not completed its final accounting related to this acquisition. As a result, preliminary estimates have been recorded and are subject to change. Any necessary adjustments from the preliminary estimates will be finalized as soon as practicable but within one year from the date of acquisition. Measurement period adjustments will be recorded in the period in which they are determined, as if they had been completed at the acquisition date.
The Company is currently in the process of finalizing its valuations related to the following:
Timber and timberlands
Property, plant and equipment
Other current and non-current assets
Other current and non-current liabilities

Operating Results and Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information
The net income effect resulting from the Menasha acquisition for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 is impracticable to determine, as the Company immediately integrated Menasha into its ongoing operations. Additionally, pro forma information has not been provided, as the portion of Menasha acquired was a component of a larger legal entity and separate historical financial statements were not prepared. Since stand-alone financial information prior to the acquisition was not readily available, compilation of such data is impracticable.
Washington Disposition
The Company also completed its disposition of approximately
55,000
acres located in Washington to FIA (the “Washington disposition”) for a sale price of approximately
$130 million
. The proceeds received from the disposition were used to finance a portion of the Menasha Acquisition. The remainder of the acquisition was financed by entering into an incremental term loan agreement with CoBank, ACB, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of Farm Credit institutions to provide a
10
-year,
$300 million
incremental term loan. See
Note 5

for additional information.

JOINT VENTURE INVESTMENT
Matariki Forestry Group
On March 3, 2016, the Company made a capital contribution into Matariki Forestry Group (the "New Zealand JV"), a joint venture that owns or leases approximately
0.4 million
legal acres of New Zealand timberlands, for the purpose of refinancing approximately NZ
$235 million
of New Zealand JV indebtedness and paying related fees and expenses, including the costs of settling out-of-the-money interest rate swaps. As a result of the capital contribution, the Company's ownership interest in the New Zealand JV increased from
65%
to
77%
. As a result of the increase in ownership percentage, the pro-rata share of the New Zealand JV’s unrealized foreign currency and cash flow hedge losses were reallocated between the Company and the noncontrolling interest. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810-10-45-24, this reallocation resulted in a reduction to the common share balance. The Company maintains a controlling financial interest in the New Zealand JV and, accordingly, consolidates the New Zealand JV’s Balance Sheet and results of operations. The portions of the consolidated financial position and results of operations attributable to the New Zealand JV’s
23%
noncontrolling interest are shown separately within the Consolidated Statement of Income and Comprehensive Income and Consolidated Statement of Shareholders’ Equity. Rayonier New Zealand Limited (“RNZ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rayonier Inc., serves as the manager of the New Zealand JV.

SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION
Sales between operating segments are made based on estimated fair market value and intercompany sales, purchases and profits (losses) are eliminated in consolidation. The Company evaluates financial performance based on segment operating income and Adjusted EBITDA. Asset information is not reported by segment, as the Company does not produce asset information by segment internally.
Operating income as presented in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss) is equal to segment income. Certain income (loss) items in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss) are not allocated to segments. These items, which include gains (losses) from certain asset dispositions, interest income (expense), miscellaneous income (expense) and income tax (expense) benefit, are not considered by management to be part of segment operations and are included under “Corporate and other” or “unallocated interest expense and other.”

Incremental Term Loan Agreement
On April 28, 2016, the Company entered into an incremental term loan agreement with CoBank, ACB, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of Farm Credit institutions to provide a
10
-year,
$300 million
incremental term loan. Proceeds from the new term loan were used to fund Rayonier’s portion of the Menasha acquisition net of the proceeds received from the Washington disposition, to repay approximately
$105 million
outstanding on the Company’s revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes. The Company has entered into an interest rate swap transaction to fix the cost of
$200 million
of the term loan for its
10
-year term, while the remaining
$100 million
has a variable rate as of June 30, 2016 (see
Note 1
—
Basis of Presentation
for subsequent event). The periodic interest rate on the incremental term loan agreement is LIBOR plus
1.900%
. The Company receives annual patronage payments, which are profit distributions made by a cooperative to its member-users based on the quantity or value of business done with the member-user. The Company estimates the effective interest rate for the second quarter was approximately
2.6%
after consideration of the estimated patronage payments and interest rate swaps.
Term Credit Agreement
On August 5, 2015, the Company entered into a credit agreement with CoBank, ACB, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of Farm Credit institutions and other commercial banks to provide
$550 million
of new credit facilities, including a
five
-year
$200 million
unsecured revolving credit facility (see below) and a
nine
-year
$350 million
term loan facility. The Company has entered into an interest rate swap transaction to fix the cost of the term loan facility over its
nine
-year term. The periodic interest rate on the term credit agreement is LIBOR plus
1.625%
. The Company estimates the effective interest rate for the second quarter was approximately
3.3%
after consideration of the estimated patronage payments and interest rate swaps. As of
June 30, 2016
, the term debt was advanced in full under the term credit agreement.
Revolving Credit Facility
In August 2015, the Company entered into a
five
-year
$200 million
unsecured revolving credit facility, replacing the previous
$200 million
revolving credit facility and
$100 million
farm credit facility, which were scheduled to expire in April 2016 and December 2019, respectively. The periodic interest rate on the revolving credit facility is LIBOR plus
1.250%
, with an unused commitment fee of
0.175%
.
Net repayments of $
105.0 million
were made in the second quarter of 2016 on the revolving credit facility. At
June 30, 2016
, the Company had available borrowings of $
194.5 million
under the revolving credit facility, net of
$5.5 million
to secure its outstanding letters of credit.
Joint Venture Debt
On March 3, 2016, the Company used proceeds from the term loan facility to fund a capital contribution into the New Zealand JV. The New Zealand JV in turn used the proceeds for full repayment of the outstanding amount of
$155 million
under its Tranche A credit facility.
In June 2016, the New Zealand JV entered into a
12
-month
$14.2 million
working capital facility and an
18
-month
$14.2 million
working capital facility, replacing the previous
$28.4 million
facility that expired in June 2016.

remain available on the working capital facilities at
June 30, 2016
. In addition, the New Zealand JV paid
$0.3 million
of its shareholder loan held with the non-controlling interest party. Changes in exchange rates for the six months ended

increased debt on a U.S. dollar basis for its shareholder loan by
$0.8 million
.
Debt Covenants
In connection with the Company’s
$350 million
term credit agreement,
$300 million
incremental term loan agreement and

HIGHER AND BETTER USE TIMBERLANDS AND REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT INVESTMENTS
Rayonier continuously assesses potential alternative uses of its timberlands, as some properties may become more valuable for development, residential, recreation or other purposes. The Company periodically transfers, via a sale or contribution from the real estate investment trust (“REIT”) entities to taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”), higher and better use (“HBU”) timberlands to enable land-use entitlement, development or marketing activities. The Company also acquires HBU properties in connection with timberland acquisitions. These properties are managed as timberlands until sold or developed. While the majority of HBU sales involve rural and recreational land, the Company also selectively pursues various land-use entitlements on certain properties for residential, commercial and industrial development in order to enhance the long-term value of such properties. For selected development properties, Rayonier also invests in targeted infrastructure improvements, such as roadways and utilities, to accelerate the marketability and improve the value of such properties.
An analysis of higher and better use timberlands and real estate development costs from December 31, 2015 to

COMMITMENTS
The Company leases certain buildings, machinery, and equipment under various operating leases. The Company also has long-term lease agreements on certain timberlands in the Southern U.S. and New Zealand. U.S. leases typically have initial terms of approximately
30
to
65
years, with renewal provisions in some cases. New Zealand timberland lease terms range between
30
and
99
years. Such leases are generally non-cancellable and require minimum annual rental payments.
At June 30, 2016, the future minimum payments under non-cancellable operating and timberland leases were as follows:

35
year termination notice from the government. If no termination notice is given, the CFLs renew automatically each year for a
one
year term. As of
June 30, 2016
, the New Zealand JV has
four
CFL’s under termination notice, terminating in 2034,
two
in 2044 and 2049 as well as
two
fixed-term CFL’s expiring in 2062. The annual license fee is determined based on current market rental value, with triennial rent reviews.

INCOME TAXES
The operations conducted by the Company’s REIT entities are generally not subject to U.S. federal and state income tax. The New Zealand JV is subject to corporate level tax in New Zealand. Non-REIT qualifying operations are conducted by the Company’s TRS. The primary businesses performed in Rayonier’s TRS include log trading and certain real estate activities, such as the sale and entitlement of development HBU properties.
Provision for Income Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rate is below the
35.0%
U.S. statutory rate due to tax benefits associated with being a REIT. The income tax expense (benefit) for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2016
and
2015
are principally related to the New Zealand JV.

CONTINGENCIES
Following the Company’s November 10, 2014 earnings release and filing of the restated interim financial statements for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014 (the “November 2014 Announcement”), shareholders of the Company filed
five
putative class actions against the Company and Paul G. Boynton, Hans E. Vanden Noort, David L. Nunes, and H. Edwin Kiker arising from circumstances described in the November 2014 Announcement, entitled respectively:
•
Sating v. Rayonier Inc. et al
, Civil Action No. 3:14-cv-01395; filed November 12, 2014 in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida;
•
Keasler v. Rayonier Inc. et al
, Civil Action No. 3:14-cv-01398, filed November 13, 2014 in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida;
•
Lake Worth Firefighters’ Pension Trust Fund v. Rayonier Inc. et al
, Civil Action No. 3:14-cv-01403, filed November 13, 2014 in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida;
•
Christie v. Rayonier Inc. et al
, Civil Action No. 3:14-cv-01429, filed November 21, 2014 in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida; and
•
Brown v. Rayonier Inc. et al
, Civil Action No. 1:14-cv-08986, initially filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and later transferred to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida and assigned as Civil Action No. 3:14-cv-01474.
On January 9, 2015, the
five
securities actions were consolidated into
one
putative class action entitled
In re Rayonier Inc. Securities Litigation
, Case No. 3:14-cv-01395-TJC-JBT, in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. The plaintiffs alleged that the defendants made false and/or misleading statements in violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The plaintiffs sought unspecified monetary damages and attorneys’ fees and costs.
Two
shareholders, the Pension Trust Fund for Operating Engineers and the Lake Worth Firefighters’ Pension Trust Fund moved for appointment as lead plaintiff on January 12, 2015, which was granted on February 25, 2015. On April 7, 2015, the plaintiffs filed a Consolidated Class Action Complaint (the “Consolidated Complaint”). In the Consolidated Complaint, plaintiffs added allegations as to and added as a defendant N. Lynn Wilson, a former officer of Rayonier. With the filing of the Consolidated Complaint, David L. Nunes and H. Edwin Kiker were dropped from the case as defendants. Defendants timely filed Motions to Dismiss the Consolidated Complaint on May 15, 2015.
After oral argument on Defendants' motions on August 25, 2015, the Court dismissed the Consolidated Complaint without prejudice, allowing plaintiffs leave to refile. Plaintiffs filed the Amended Consolidated Class Action Complaint (the “Amended Complaint”) on September 25, 2015, which continued to assert claims against the Company, as well as Ms. Wilson and Messrs. Boynton and Vanden Noort. Defendants timely filed Motions to Dismiss the Amended Complaint on October 26, 2015. The court denied those motions on May 20, 2016. The case is now in the discovery phase. At this preliminary stage, the Company cannot determine whether there is a reasonable likelihood a material loss has been incurred nor can the range of any such loss be estimated.
On November 26, 2014, December 29, 2014, January 26, 2015, February 13, 2015, and May 12, 2015, the Company received separate letters from shareholders requesting that the Company investigate or pursue derivative claims against certain officers and directors related to the November 2014 Announcement. Although these demands do not identify any claims against the Company, the Company has certain obligations to advance expenses and provide indemnification to certain current and former officers and directors of the Company. The Company has also incurred expenses as a result of costs arising from the investigation of the claims alleged in the various demands. At this preliminary stage, the ultimate outcome of these matters cannot be predicted, nor can the range of potential expenses the Company may incur as a result of the obligations identified above be estimated.
In November 2014, the Company received a subpoena from the SEC seeking documents related to the Company’s amended reports filed with the SEC on November 10, 2014. The Company cooperated with the SEC and complied with its requests. The Company received a letter, dated July 22, 2016, from the Division of Enforcement of the SEC, stating that it had concluded the investigation as to the Company and, based on the information provided to the staff of the Division of Enforcement during the investigation, the Division of Enforcement did not intend to recommend to the SEC an enforcement action against the Company.

The Company has also been named as a defendant in various other lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. While the Company has procured reasonable and customary insurance covering risks normally occurring in connection with its businesses, it has in certain cases retained some risk through the operation of self-insurance, primarily in the areas of workers’ compensation, property insurance and general liability. These pending lawsuits and claims, either individually or in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flow.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The Company is exposed to market risk related to potential fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to mitigate the financial impact of exposure to these risks.
Accounting for derivative financial instruments is governed by ASC Topic 815,
Derivatives and Hedging
, (“ASC 815”). In accordance with ASC 815, the Company records its derivative instruments at fair value as either assets or liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the instruments’ fair value are accounted for based on their intended use. Gains and losses on derivatives that are designated and qualify for cash flow hedge accounting are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) and reclassified into earnings when the hedged transaction materializes. Gains and losses on derivatives that are designated and qualify for net investment hedge accounting are recorded as a component of AOCI and will not be reclassified into earnings until the Company’s investment in its New Zealand operations is partially or completely liquidated. The ineffective portion of any hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments and those which are no longer effective as hedging instruments, are recognized immediately in earnings. The Company’s hedge ineffectiveness was de minimis for all periods presented.
Foreign Currency Exchange and Option Contracts
The functional currency of Rayonier’s wholly owned subsidiary, Rayonier New Zealand Limited, and the New Zealand JV is the New Zealand dollar. The New Zealand JV is exposed to foreign currency risk on export sales and ocean freight payments which are mainly denominated in U.S. dollars. The New Zealand JV typically hedges
50%
to
90%
of its estimated foreign currency exposure with respect to the following three months forecasted sales and purchases,
50%
to
75%
of forecasted sales and purchases for the forward
three
to
12
months and up to
50%
of the forward
12
to
18
months. Foreign currency exposure from the New Zealand JV’s trading operations is typically hedged based on the following three months forecasted sales and purchases. As of
June 30, 2016
, foreign currency exchange contracts and foreign currency option contracts had maturity dates through November 2017.
Foreign currency exchange and option contracts hedging foreign currency risk on export sales and ocean freight payments qualify for cash flow hedge accounting. The fair value of foreign currency exchange contracts is determined by a mark-to-market valuation which estimates fair value by discounting the difference between the contracted forward price and the current forward price for the residual maturity of the contract using a risk-free interest rate. The fair value of foreign currency option contracts is based on a mark-to-market calculation using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
The Company may de-designate these cash flow hedge relationships in advance or at the occurrence of the forecasted transaction. The portion of gains or losses on the derivative instrument previously accumulated in other comprehensive income for de-designated hedges remains in accumulated other comprehensive income until the forecasted transaction affects earnings. Changes in the value of derivative instruments after de-designation are recorded in earnings.
In August 2015, the Company entered into foreign currency option contracts (notional amount of
$332 million
) to mitigate the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates when translating the New Zealand JV’s balance sheet to U.S. dollars. These contracts hedged a portion of the Company’s net investment in New Zealand and qualified as a net investment hedge. The fair value of these contracts was determined by a mark-to-market valuation, which estimates fair value by discounting the difference between the contracted forward price and the current forward price for the residual maturity of the contract using a risk-free interest rate. The hedges qualified for hedge accounting whereby fluctuations in fair market value during the life of the hedge are recorded in AOCI and remain there permanently unless a partial or full liquidation of the investment is made. At each reporting period, the Company reviews the hedges for ineffectiveness. Ineffectiveness can occur when changes to the investment or the hedged instrument are made such that the risk of foreign exchange movements are no longer mitigated by the hedging instrument. At that time, the amount related to the ineffectiveness of the hedge is recorded into earnings. The Company did not have any ineffectiveness during the life of the hedges. The foreign currency option contracts matured on February 3, 2016.
On February 1, 2016, the Company entered into foreign currency option contracts (notional amounts of
$159.7 million
and
$154.6 million
) to mitigate the risk of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates when funding the planned capital contribution to the New Zealand JV. On February 29, 2016, the contracts were settled for a net premium of
$0.3 million
. The gain on these contracts was recorded in “Other operating income, net” as they did not qualify for hedge accounting treatment.
On February 29, 2016, the Company purchased a foreign exchange forward contract (notional amount
$159.5 million
) to mitigate the risk of fluctuations in foreign exchange rate contracts when funding the planned capital contribution to the New Zealand JV. The contract matured on March 3, 2016, resulting in a gain of
$0.9 million
. The gain on this contract was recorded in “Other operating income, net” as it did not qualify for hedge accounting treatment.

Interest Rate Swaps
The Company used interest rate swaps to manage the New Zealand JV’s exposure to interest rate movements on its variable rate debt attributable to changes in the New Zealand Bank bill rate. On March 3, 2016, as part of the capital contribution into the New Zealand JV, the Company settled all remaining New Zealand JV interest rate swaps for
$9.3 million
. Initially, these hedges qualified for hedge accounting; however, upon consolidation of the New Zealand JV in 2013, the hedges no longer qualified, requiring all future changes in the fair market value of the hedges to be recorded in earnings.
The Company is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk on its variable-rate Term Credit Agreement and Incremental Term Loan Agreement (as discussed below), and uses variable-to-fixed interest rate swaps to hedge this exposure. For these derivative instruments, the Company reports the gains/losses from the fluctuations in the fair market value of the hedges in AOCI and reclassifies them to earnings as interest expense in the same period in which the hedged interest payments affect earnings.
In August 2015, the Company entered into a
nine
-year interest rate swap agreement for a notional amount of
$170 million
. This swap agreement fixes the variable portion of the interest rate on the Term Credit Agreement borrowings due 2024 from LIBOR to an average rate of
2.20%
. Together with the bank margin of
1.63%
, this results in a rate of
3.83%
before estimated patronage payments. This derivative instrument has been designated as an interest rate cash flow hedge and qualifies for hedge accounting.
Also, in August 2015, the Company entered into a
nine
-year forward interest rate swap agreement with a start date in April 2016 for a notional amount of
$180 million
. This swap agreement fixes the variable portion of the interest rate on the Term Credit Agreement borrowings due 2024 from LIBOR to an average rate of
2.35%
. Together with the bank margin of
1.63%
, this results in a rate of
3.97%
before estimated patronage payments. This derivative instrument has been designated as an interest rate cash flow hedge and qualifies for hedge accounting.
In April 2016, the Company entered into
two
nine
-year interest rate swap agreements, each for a notional amount of
$100 million
. These swap agreements fix the variable portion of the interest rate on the Incremental Term Loan borrowings due 2026 to an average rate of
1.60%
. Together with the bank margin of
1.90%
, this results in a rate of
3.50%
before estimated patronage payments.These derivative instruments have been designated as interest rate cash flow hedges and qualify for hedge accounting.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
A three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value was established in the Accounting Standards Codification as follows:
Level 1
— Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2
—
Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1.
Level 3
—
Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The following table presents the carrying amount and estimated fair values of financial instruments held by the Company at
June 30, 2016
and
December 31, 2015

Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
for information regarding the Balance Sheet classification of the Company’s derivative financial instruments.
Rayonier uses the following methods and assumptions in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments:
Cash and cash equivalents and Restricted cash
— The carrying amount is equal to fair market value.
Debt
— The fair value of fixed rate debt is based upon quoted market prices for debt with similar terms and maturities. The variable rate debt adjusts with changes in the market rate, therefore the carrying value approximates fair value.
Interest rate swap agreements
— The fair value of interest rate contracts is determined by discounting the expected future cash flows, for each instrument, at prevailing interest rates.
Foreign currency exchange contracts
— The fair value of foreign currency exchange contracts is determined by a mark-to-market valuation which estimates fair value by discounting the difference between the contracted forward price and the current forward price for the residual maturity of the contract using a risk-free interest rate.
Foreign currency option contracts
— The fair value of foreign currency option contracts is based on a mark-to-market calculation using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Company has
one
qualified non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering a portion of its employees and an unfunded plan that provides benefits in excess of amounts allowable under current tax law in the qualified plan. Currently, the pension plans are closed to new participants. Employee benefit plan liabilities are calculated using actuarial estimates and management assumptions. These estimates are based on historical information, along with certain assumptions about future events. Changes in assumptions, as well as changes in actual experience, could cause the estimates to change. In
2016
, the Company has no mandatory pension contribution requirement.

Item 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
When we refer to “we,” “us,” “our,” “the Company,” or “Rayonier,” we mean Rayonier Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. References herein to “Notes to Financial Statements” refer to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of Rayonier Inc. included in Item 1 of this Report.
This MD&A is intended to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and certain other factors which may affect future results. Our MD&A should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this report, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 (the “2015 Form 10-K”) and information contained in our subsequent reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this document regarding anticipated financial outcomes including Rayonier’s earnings guidance, if any, business and market conditions, outlook, expected dividend rate, Rayonier’s business strategies, including expected harvest schedules, timberland acquisitions, sales of non-strategic timberlands, the anticipated benefits of Rayonier’s business strategies, , and other similar statements relating to Rayonier’s future events, developments, or financial or operational performance or results, are “forward-looking statements” made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements are identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “estimate,” “believe,” “intend,” “project,” “anticipate” and other similar language. However, the absence of these or similar words or expressions does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. While management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable when made, forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or events and undue reliance should not be placed on these statements. The risk factors contained in Item 1A —
Risk Factors
in the 2015 Form 10-K and similar discussions included in other reports that we subsequently file with the SEC, among others, could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the Company’s historical experience and those expressed in forward-looking statements made in this document.
Forward-looking statements are only as of the date they are made, and the Company undertakes no duty to update its forward-looking statements except as required by law. You are advised, however, to review any subsequent disclosures the Company makes on related subjects in its subsequent reports filed with the SEC.
To supplement Rayonier’s financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), Rayonier uses certain non-GAAP measures, including “cash available for distribution,” and “Adjusted EBITDA,” which are defined and further explained in
Performance and Liquidity Indicators
below. Reconciliation of such measures to the nearest GAAP measures can also be found in
Performance and Liquidity Indicators
below. Rayonier’s definitions of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. These non-GAAP measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Our Company
We are a leading timberland real estate investment trust (“REIT”) with assets located in some of the most productive softwood timber growing regions in the United States. and New Zealand. Our revenues, operating income and cash flows are primarily derived from the following core business segments: Southern Timber, Pacific Northwest Timber, New Zealand Timber, Real Estate and Trading. As of
June 30, 2016
, we owned or leased under long-term agreements approximately 2.3 million acres of timberlands located in the U.S. South (1.9 million acres) and U.S. Pacific Northwest (379,000 acres). We also have a 77% ownership interest in Matariki Forestry Group, a joint venture (“New Zealand JV”), that owns or leases approximately 436,000 acres (299,000 net plantable acres) of timberlands in New Zealand.
The Southern Timber, Pacific Northwest Timber and New Zealand Timber segments include all activities related to the harvesting of timber and other non-timber income activities, such as the leasing of properties for hunting, mineral extraction and cell towers. The New Zealand Timber segment also reflects any land or leasehold sales that occur within our New Zealand portfolio.
The Real Estate segment includes all U.S. land sales disaggregated into five sales categories: Improved Development, Unimproved Development, Rural, Non-Strategic / Timberlands and Large Dispositions.
The Trading segment reflects the log trading activities that support our New Zealand operations. The Trading segment complements the New Zealand Timber segment by adding scale and achieving cost savings that directly benefit the New Zealand Timber segment. Trading also generally contributes modestly to earnings without significant investment and provides market intelligence that benefits the timber business.

Industry and Market Conditions
The demand for timber is directly related to the underlying demand for pulp, packaging, paper, lumber and other wood products. The significant majority of timber sold in our Southern Timber segment is consumed domestically. With a higher proportion of pulpwood, our Southern Timber segment relies heavily on downstream markets for pulp and paper, and to a lesser extent wood pellet markets. Our Pacific Northwest segment relies primarily on domestic customers but also exports a significant volume of timber, particularly to China. Both the Southern and Pacific Northwest Timber segments rely on the strength of U.S. lumber markets as well as underlying housing starts. Our New Zealand Timber segment sells timber to domestic New Zealand wood products mills and also exports a significant portion of its volume to markets in China, Korea and India. In addition to market dynamics in the Pacific Rim, the New Zealand Timber segment is subject to foreign exchange fluctuations, which can impact the competitiveness of its products.
In our Southern Timber segment, second quarter 2016 average pine pulpwood prices
increased
1%
versus 2015 average prices primarily due to improved markets, specifically along the East Coast and in Alabama, while sawtimber prices
decreased
2%
due to a reduction in volume from our higher-priced region. In the Pacific Northwest, average delivered sawtimber prices
increased
3%
versus 2015 average prices primarily due to product mix with a higher proportion of sales consisting of Douglas Fir sawlogs from Oregon, while average delivered pulpwood prices
decreased
4%
versus 2015 average prices primarily due to an increase in fiber availability in the second quarter. In New Zealand, second quarter 2016 average export sawtimber prices increased 8% versus 2015 average prices primarily due to stronger demand for Radiata pine. Domestic sawtimber pricing increased 11% due to stronger demand, while domestic pulpwood pricing decreased 1% on a US$ basis due to a fall in the NZ$/ US$ exchange rate over the same comparable periods.
The Company is also subject to risk in price fluctuations in its major cost components. The primary components of the Company's cost of sales are the cost basis of timber sold (depletion), the cost basis of real estate sold and logging and transportation costs (cut and haul). Depletion includes the amortization of capitalized costs (site preparation, planting and fertilization, real estate taxes, timberland lease payments, road and bridge construction, software and certain payroll costs). Other costs include depreciation of fixed assets and equipment, road maintenance, severance and excise taxes, fire prevention and real estate commissions and closing costs.
For additional information on market conditions impacting our business, see
Results of Operations.
Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base these estimates and assumptions on historical data and trends, current fact patterns, expectations and other sources of information we believe are reasonable. Actual results may differ from these estimates. For a full description of our critical accounting policies, see Item 7 —
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Southern Timber
Second
quarter sales of
$29.6 million
decreased
$3.1 million
, or
9%
,
versus
the prior year period
due to lower harvest volumes and a decrease in average sawtimber and pulpwood prices. Harvest volumes decreased
9%
to
1.18 million
tons versus
1.30 million
tons in the prior year period. This decrease in harvest volumes was driven by significant rainfall in the Southwest which led to an extended interruption in harvesting. Average sawtimber stumpage prices decreased
1%
to
$27.00
per ton versus
$27.33
per ton in the prior year period, while average pulpwood stumpage prices decreased
4%
to
$18.31
per ton versus
$19.10
per ton in
the prior year period
. The decrease in average sawtimber prices was driven by mix, specifically a significant reduction in volume from one of the Company’s higher-priced sawtimber regions. The decrease in average pulpwood prices was driven by higher volumes from lower-priced regions, partially offset by pulpwood price increases along the East Coast. Overall, weighted-average stumpage prices (including hardwood) decreased
3%
to
$20.42
per ton versus
$21.03
per ton in
the prior year period
. Operating income of
$11.1 million
decreased
$0.7 million
versus
the prior year period
due to lower volumes (
$1.3 million
) and
lower
prices (
$0.8 million
), which were partially offset by lower depletion rates (
$1.1 million
) and higher non-timber income (
$0.2 million
).
Second
quarter Adjusted EBITDA of
$21.7 million
was
$2.7 million
below
the prior year period
.
Year-to-date
sales of
$74.4 million
increased
$6.2 million
, or
9%
, versus
the prior year period
due to
higher
harvest volumes, partially offset by a
decrease
in average pulpwood and sawtimber prices. Harvest volumes
increased
10%
to
2.94 million
tons versus
2.66 million
tons in the prior year period. This significant increase in harvest volumes was driven by acceleration of stumpage sale activity due to extreme wet weather conditions in certain markets earlier in the year. Average pulpwood stumpage prices
decreased
2%
to
$18.66
per ton versus
$18.96
per ton in
the prior year period
, while average sawtimber stumpage prices
decreased
4%
to
$26.95
per ton versus
$28.13
per ton in
the prior year period
. The
decrease
in average sawtimber prices was driven by mix, specifically a significant reduction in volume from one of the Company’s higher-priced sawtimber regions. Average pulpwood prices continued to be well above south-wide benchmarks due to strong pricing in our core markets, particularly along the East Coast. Overall, weighted average stumpage prices (including hardwood)
decreased
3%
to
$20.83
per ton versus
$21.37
per ton in

Pacific Northwest Timber
Second
quarter sales of
$16.9 million
decreased
$0.2 million
, or
1%
,
versus
the prior year period
due to a lower proportion of delivered sales (
94%
versus
100%
in the prior year period) and
lower
pulpwood and sawtimber prices. Harvest volumes
increased
7%
to
267,000

tons in
the prior year period
. Average delivered sawtimber prices
decreased
3%
to

the prior year period
, while average delivered pulpwood prices
decreased
1%
to
$42.97
per ton
versus
$43.37
per ton in
the prior year period
. The decrease in average sawtimber prices was driven by continued soft demand in export markets and reduced local sawmill capacity, while the decrease in average pulpwood prices was driven by an increase in available fiber in the second quarter. Operating income of
$1.1 million
decreased
$0.6 million
versus
the prior year period
due to
higher
depletion rates (
$0.5 million
),
lower
prices (
$0.2 million
) and
lower
non-timber income (
$0.4 million
), which were partially offset by
higher

New Zealand Timber
Second
quarter sales of
$47.7 million
increased
$8.5 million
, or
22%
,
versus
the prior year period
due to higher domestic and export product prices and
higher
volumes. Harvest volumes
increased
7%
to
621,000
tons
versus
582,000
tons in
the prior year period
. Average delivered prices for export sawtimber
increased
13%
to

the prior year period
, while average delivered prices for domestic sawtimber
increased
7%
to
$71.37
per ton
versus
$66.96
per ton in
the prior year period
. The
increase
in export sawtimber prices was primarily due to stronger demand from China. The
increase
in domestic sawtimber prices (in U.S. dollar terms) was driven primarily by strong demand for construction materials, partially offset by the fall in the NZ$/US$ exchange rate (US
$0.69
per NZ
$1.00
versus
US
$0.74
per NZ
$1.00
). Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, domestic sawtimber prices increased
15%
from the prior year period. Operating income of
$10.0 million
increased
$10.9 million
versus the prior year period due to
higher
prices (
$7.8 million
),
higher
volumes (

above
the prior year period
.
Year-to-date
sales of
$83.8 million
increased
$3.4 million
, or
4%
, versus
the prior year period
due to

at
1.12 million
tons. Average delivered prices for export sawtimber
increased
2%
to

the prior year period
, while average delivered prices for domestic sawtimber
increased
1%
to
$69.22
per ton versus
$68.76
per ton in
the prior year period
. The
increase
in export sawtimber prices was primarily due to stronger demand from China, while the
increase
in domestic sawtimber prices (in U.S. dollar terms) was driven primarily by the demand for structural grade material, partially offset by the fall in the NZ$/US$ exchange rate (US
$0.68
per NZ
$1.00
versus US
$0.75
per NZ
$1.00
). Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, domestic sawtimber prices increased
12%
from

Corporate and Other Expense/Eliminations
Second
quarter corporate and other operating expenses of

decreased
$0.5 million
versus

), which were partially offset by transaction costs related to the previously announced Menasha acquisition ($1.2 million)
.
Costs related to shareholder litigation include expenses incurred as a result of the securities litigation, the shareholder derivative demands and the Securities and Exchange Commission investigation. See Note 8—
Contingencies.
Interest Expense
Second
quarter interest expense of
$8.0 million
decreased
$0.5 million
versus
the prior year period
, primarily due to lower rates on the term credit agreement entered into in the third quarter of 2015, partially offset by higher outstanding debt.
Income Tax Benefit (Expense)
Second
quarter income tax expense of
$2.3 million
was principally related to the New Zealand JV.
Share Repurchases
During the first quarter, the Company repurchased $0.7 million of common stock at an average price of $19.59 per share and did not repurchase any common stock in the second quarter. As of
June 30, 2016
, the Company had
122.9 million
shares of common stock outstanding and $99.3 million remaining on its current share repurchase authorization.
Outlook
Based on solid first half results, expectations of continued strength in New Zealand export and domestic markets, and a strong pipeline of Real Estate closings in the second half of the year, we expect to achieve our prior full-year Adjusted EBITDA guidance. Despite our strong outlook for the year, we continue to expect relatively flat pricing through the balance of the year in our Southern Timber and Pacific Northwest Timber segments. In our New Zealand Timber segment, we are tracking well ahead of our prior segment guidance, and we expect that this segment will continue to benefit from stronger relative demand in China for its Radiata pine logs. In our Real Estate segment, we continue to be encouraged by market interest in our Wildlight development project north of Jacksonville, Florida, and we have a strong pipeline of other HBU opportunities slated to close in the second half of 2016.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal source of cash is cash flow from operations, primarily the harvesting of timber and sales of real estate. As a REIT, our main use of cash is dividends. We also use cash to maintain the productivity of our timberlands through replanting and silviculture. Our operations have generally produced consistent cash flow and required limited capital resources. Short-term borrowings have helped fund working capital needs while acquisitions of timberlands generally require funding from external sources.

Cash Provided by Operating Activities
The decline in cash provided by operating activities in 2016 was primarily attributable to changes in working capital, partially offset by higher operating results.
Cash Used for Investing Activities
Cash used for investing activities
increased
$57.9 million
compared to 2015 primarily due to higher timberland acquisitions of
$188.2 million
, a
$2.1 million
increase in real estate development investments and a
$0.9 million
increase in spending on the construction of the Company’s office building. This amount was partially offset by net proceeds from a large disposition of
$127.0 million
and the change in restricted cash of
$13.8 million
.
Cash Provided by (Used for) Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities increased
$209.3 million
from the prior year period primarily due to higher net debt issuances of
$199.2 million
, lower repurchases of common shares of
$8.3 million
and a decrease in dividends paid of
$2.0 million
.

Table of Contents
Expected
2016
Expenditures
As part of its mixed-use community development project located north of Jacksonville at the interchange of I-95 and State Road A1A, the Company is constructing an office building expected to cost approximately $13 million. Of the $13 million, we expect to incur $7 million in 2016 and $6 million in 2017. The new office will allow consolidation of three leased offices in Jacksonville and Fernandina Beach, Florida into one location and also serve as a catalyst for the Company’s mixed-use development project.
Capital expenditures in
2016
are expected to be between $60 and $65 million, excluding capital expenditures related to the office building and any strategic timberland acquisitions we may make. Capital expenditures are expected to be primarily comprised of seedling planting, fertilization and other silvicultural activities, property taxes, lease payments, allocated overhead and other capitalized costs. Aside from capital expenditures, we may also acquire timberland as we actively evaluate acquisition opportunities. Real estate development investments are expected to be between $10 million and $12 million.
Our
2016
dividend payments are expected to be approximately $123 million assuming no change in the quarterly dividend rate of $0.25 per share or material changes in the number of shares outstanding.
Future share repurchases, if any, will depend on the Company’s liquidity and cash flow, as well as general market conditions and other considerations including capital allocation priorities.
We have no mandatory pension contributions in
2016
but will likely be required to make contributions in the future. We also may make discretionary contributions in the future. On an ongoing basis, cash income tax payments are expected to be minimal.
Performance and Liquidity Indicators
The discussion below is presented to enhance the reader’s understanding of our operating performance, liquidity, ability to generate cash and satisfy rating agency and creditor requirements. This information includes two measures of financial results: Adjusted Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), and Cash Available for Distribution (“CAD”). These measures are not defined by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and the discussion of Adjusted EBITDA and CAD is not intended to conflict with or change any of the GAAP disclosures described above.
Management uses CAD as a liquidity measure. CAD is a non-GAAP measure that management uses to measure cash generated during a period that is available for dividend distribution, repurchase of the Company’s common shares, debt reduction and strategic acquisitions. We define CAD as cash provided by operating activities adjusted for capital spending (excluding timberland acquisitions) and working capital and other balance sheet changes. CAD is not necessarily indicative of the CAD that may be generated in future periods.
Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure. Adjusted EBITDA, is a non-GAAP measure that management uses to make strategic decisions about the business and allows investors to evaluate the core business performance related to the assets under management. It removes the impact of specific items that management believes does not directly reflect the core business operations on an ongoing basis. We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, the non-cash cost of land and improved development, costs related to shareholder litigation, the
gain on foreign currency derivatives
and large dispositions. Costs related to shareholder litigation include expenses incurred as a result of the securities litigation, the shareholder derivative demands and the Securities and Exchange Commission investigation. See

CAD is a non-GAAP measure of cash generated during a period that is available for dividend distribution, repurchase of the Company’s common shares, debt reduction and strategic acquisitions. We define CAD as Cash Provided by Operating Activities adjusted for capital spending (excluding strategic acquisitions) and working capital and other balance sheet changes.

Liquidity Facilities
Incremental Term Loan Agreement
On April 28, 2016, the Company entered into an incremental term loan agreement with CoBank, ACB, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of Farm Credit institutions to provide a 10-year, $300 million incremental term loan. Proceeds from the new term loan were used to fund Rayonier’s portion of the Menasha acquisition net of the proceeds received from the Washington disposition, to repay approximately $105 million outstanding on the Company’s revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes. The Company has entered into an interest rate swap transaction to fix the cost of $200 million of the term loan for its 10-year term, while the remaining $100 million has a variable rate as of June 30, 2016 (see
Note 1
—
Basis of Presentation
for subsequent event). The periodic interest rate on the incremental term loan agreement is LIBOR plus 1.900%. The Company receives annual patronage payments, which are profit distributions made by a cooperative to its member-users based on the quantity or value of business done with the member-user. The Company estimates the effective interest rate for the second quarter was approximately 2.6% after consideration of the estimated patronage payments and interest rate swaps.
Term Credit Agreement
On August 5, 2015, the Company entered into a credit agreement with CoBank, ACB, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of Farm Credit institutions and other commercial banks to provide $550 million of new credit facilities, including a nine-year $350 million term loan facility. The Company has entered into an interest rate swap transaction to fix the cost of the term loan facility over its nine-year term. The periodic interest rate on the term credit agreement is LIBOR plus 1.625%. The Company estimates the effective interest rate for the second quarter was approximately 3.3% after consideration of the estimated patronage payments and interest rate swaps. As of
June 30, 2016
, the term debt was advanced in full under the term credit agreement.
Revolving Credit Facility
In August 2015, the Company entered into a five-year $200 million unsecured revolving credit facility, replacing the previous $200 million revolving credit facility and $100 million farm credit facility, which were scheduled to expire in April 2016 and December 2019, respectively. The periodic interest rate on the revolving credit facility is LIBOR plus 1.250%, with an unused commitment fee of 0.175%.
Net repayments of $105.0 million were made during the second quarter of 2016 on the revolving credit facility. At
June 30, 2016
, the Company had available borrowings of $194.5 million, net of $5.5 million to secure its outstanding letters of credit, under the revolving credit facility.
Joint Venture Debt
During the first quarter, the Company used proceeds from the term loan facility to fund a capital contribution into the New Zealand JV, which the New Zealand JV in turn used for repayment of the outstanding amount of $155 million under its existing Tranche A credit facility. In addition, all interest rate swap contracts associated with this debt were settled for $9.3 million at the time of the debt repayment.
In June 2016, the New Zealand JV entered into a 12-month $14.2 million working capital facility and an 18-month $14.2 million working capital facility, replacing the previous $28.4 million facility that expired in June 2016.
During the
six
months ended
June 30, 2016
, the New Zealand JV made additional borrowings and repayments of $136.0 million on its working capital facility. Additional draws totaling $28.4 million remain available on the working capital facility. In addition, the New Zealand JV paid $0.3 million of its shareholder loan held with the non-controlling interest party.

Item 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market and Other Economic Risks
We are exposed to various market risks, including changes in interest rates, commodity prices and foreign exchange rates. Our objective is to minimize the economic impact of these market risks. We use derivatives in accordance with policies and procedures approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. Derivatives are managed by a senior executive committee whose responsibilities include initiating, managing and monitoring resulting exposures. We do not enter into financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
As of
June 30, 2016
we had $665 million of U.S. long-term variable rate debt. Our primary interest rate exposure on variable rate debt results from changes in LIBOR. However, we use interest rate swaps to manage our exposure to interest rate movements on our term credit agreement by swapping existing borrowings from floating rates to fixed rates. The notional amount of outstanding interest rate swap contracts at
June 30, 2016
was $550 million. The term credit agreement and associated interest rate swaps mature in August 2024 and the incremental term loan agreement and associated interest rate swaps mature in April 2026. At this borrowing level, a hypothetical one-percentage point increase/decrease in interest rates would result in a corresponding increase/decrease of approximately $1.2 million in interest payments and expense over a 12 month period.
The fair market value of our U.S. long-term fixed interest rate debt is also subject to interest rate risk. The estimated fair value of our long-term fixed-rate debt at
June 30, 2016
was $369 million compared to the $367 million principal amount. We use interest rates of debt with similar terms and maturities to estimate the fair value of our debt. Generally, the fair market value of fixed-rate debt will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. A hypothetical one-percentage point increase/decrease in prevailing interest rates at
June 30, 2016
would result in a corresponding decrease/increase in the fair value of our long-term fixed-rate debt of approximately $17 million.
We estimate the periodic effective interest rate on U.S. long-term fixed and variable rate debt for the second quarter was approximately
3.3%
after consideration of interest rate swaps and estimated patronage payments, excluding unused commitment fees on the revolving credit facility.
The functional currency of the Company’s New Zealand-based operations and New Zealand JV is the New Zealand dollar. Through these operations and our ownership in the New Zealand JV, we are exposed to foreign currency risk on cash held in foreign currencies and on foreign export sales and ocean freight payments that are predominantly denominated in U.S. dollars. To mitigate these risks, the New Zealand JV routinely enters into foreign currency exchange contracts and foreign currency option contracts to hedge a portion of the New Zealand JV’s foreign exchange exposure. At
June 30, 2016
, the New Zealand JV had foreign currency exchange contracts with a notional amount of
$33 million
and foreign currency option contracts with a notional amount of
$89 million
outstanding. The amount hedged represents 59% of forecast U.S. dollar denominated harvesting sales proceeds over the next 18 months and 45% of log trading sales proceeds over the next 3 months.
Item 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Rayonier management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure controls and procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)), are designed with the objective of ensuring information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported or submitted within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no control evaluation can provide absolute assurance that all control exceptions and instances of fraud have been prevented or detected on a timely basis. Even systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance that their objectives are achieved.
Based on an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of
June 30, 2016
.
In the quarter ended
June 30, 2016
, based upon the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of SEC Rule 13a-15, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that would materially affect or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
In February 2016, the Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to $100 million of Rayonier’s common shares (the “share repurchase program”) to be made at management’s discretion. The program has no time limit and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. There were no shares repurchased under this program in the
second
quarter of
2016
and there was $99.3 million, or approximately
3,784,696
shares based on the period end closing stock price of $26.24, available for repurchase as of
June 30, 2016
.
In 1996, we began a Common Share repurchase program (the “1996 anti-dilutive program”) to minimize the dilutive effect of our employee incentive stock plans on earnings per share. This program limits the number of shares that may be purchased each year to the greater of 1.5% of outstanding shares at the beginning of the year or the number of incentive shares issued to employees during the year. In October 2000, July 2003 and October 2011, our Board of Directors authorized the purchase of additional shares in the program totaling 2.1 million shares. None of these shares have expiration dates. There were no shares repurchased under this program in the
second
quarter of
2016
and there were
3,776,612
shares available for purchase at
June 30, 2016
.
